I asume you want to print the RVEdit, or? Else I don't see any real meaning

to the physical size.

In that case:

Lets say you want the cell to be Xmm

Use table.Cells[r, c].BestWidth

BestWidth is a preferred width for cell, in pixels or percents of table

width.

So then you need to know some info about the resoloution.

uses

printers

var

pixPerMMH: extended;

widthMM: Integer;

//snip

widthMM := GetDeviceCaps(Printer.Handle, HORZSIZE);

pixPerMMW := PageRect.Right/widthMM;

You have to get the PageRect. I get it from RVPrint.OnPagePrepaint

So:

table.Cells[r, c].BestWidth := Round (Xmm * pixPerMMW);
